London Fog Lavender Latte Recipe + Waning Moon Reflections

#selfcaresunday Life can move so fast and sometimes it feels like there is so much demanded of us. 
 
I used to wear my burnout like a badge of honour, a merit for how much I’d “achieved”, as before so much of my worth was tied to how productive or useful I was (hey #childhoodtrauma 😬 🙄 👋 )
These days I recognise slow living and the sacred pause as a luxurious way of life; instead proving how I can still take action and achieve my dreams, whilst creating spaciousness in my life… working with the moonphases helped me do this 😌
The waning moon, reminds us that the time for “doing” and blooming with the full moon is done for another month and now it’s time to pause and reflect: release + edit.
This morning I’m taking some time to journal as I look back over the month, asking how I supported my own journey (and how I didn’t..) whilst enjoying this beautifully soul soothing London Fog Lavender Latte 
To make yours simply brew an Earl grey tea bag with 2tsp of natural, dried lavender flowers.
I fill my cup to 2/3 and then once brewed for a few minutes, remove your teabag and the lavender flowers and add a few drops of vanilla essence and 2tsp of honey..I love sweet freedom's bee free honneee made naturally with apple and carob extracts 🍏 
Then either foam 1/3 cup of milk (I used unsweetened almond) using a frother or shaking it just warmed in a jar (careful opening the lid!) or like me, you can pour the whole lot into your bullet blender and whizz up until frothy ☁️ 
Finally pour into your favourite mug and sprinkle some more lavender flowers on top, sit back and enjoy the plant medicine magic of lavender with this beautifully sweet, nurturing and perfumed potion 🤍
☕️ I am so in love with this witchy minimalist mug I got for just £1.50 from my local Poundland!
It’s got the @witchy_womens_institute ethos running right through it ~ making the mystical accessible 🙌
